We spoke to some of the teachers to hear about what their experience was like:

“Visions are important for success, but this experience has solidified the importance of strategy in achieving those visions. A grand idea without a master plan and proper execution is nothing more than mental gymnastics.”

“In my opinion, the best internships offer evolving responsibilities so that the intern has the opportunity to build different skills. That said, one of the things I appreciate most about my internship…”

Following the summer internship, corps members and alumni will participate in Design Camp, learning the principles of entrepreneurial and design thinking, and how to apply those to the issues and problems facing our kids and their communities.

Editor’s note: Tech Cocktail received a $150,000 grant from the Knight Foundation.
